12th Century life

Pages relating to the 12th century, with a high focus on primary sources.

Status

Articles being added rather randomly. Much work to do.

future work

• Information from Holmes' "Daily life in the 12th C" is intended to form the backbone of this project, with highlights from other specialist sources. Most of this information remains to be added to the wiki, the subject headings on the 12th Century life page giving some suggestions of topics on which basic pages are desired. Please feel free to contact User:Tiff for sources of this book.
• in depth information on topics various is desired according to authour interests. The only specification - try to give references, and note carefully when information from other centuries is being used because we have no 12th C information.
• More pages on conventional history (kings, wars, crusades etc) of this era is needed. User:Tiff is unlikely to do this as her interests lie in social history, but begs others to.
